Full job description

About Us

Our mission is to dominate the betting and gaming industry on a global scale and we need the very best Tech talent to help us achieve this.

With our proprietary platform powering everything we do, it's an exciting time to join us. We're pioneering new products and driving more advanced, creative technologies. The result? Unrivalled experiences for millions of customers worldwide.

Betfred's Technology department is driven by innovation, and you'll be at the heart of unlocking our platform's potential. So, if you want to help shape the future of betting and gaming, it's time to join us.

Job Purpose

We’re looking for a Platform Engineer to help build, operate, and improve the platforms that underpin our engineering teams. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working across infrastructure, automation, and delivery tooling, and who wants to deepen their experience in modern platform and DevOps practices.

You’ll work closely with other platform engineers and product teams to improve how software is built, deployed, and operated, reducing friction, increasing reliability, and enabling teams to move faster with confidence.
Our core application platform is built on .NET, with services connected using WebAPI, WCF, and RabbitMQ. We store and process large volumes of data using MySQL and MongoDB.

We operate a hybrid infrastructure, deploying workloads to AWS and on-premises VMware environments. Infrastructure is defined using Infrastructure as Code, and we run a mix of virtual machines, Docker, and Kubernetes, with a growing focus on containerised, microservice-based workloads.

As we continue to move more workloads onto Kubernetes, you’ll have the opportunity to learn and contribute to cloud-native patterns, GitOps, and modern delivery practices.

Our platform tooling includes:

Terraform, Ansible, and Python for infrastructure and automation
Jenkins for CI pipelines and Argo CD for GitOps-based delivery
Docker and Kubernetes for containerised workloads
Experience with these tools is helpful, but we value strong fundamentals and a willingness to learn just as highly.

You’re someone who:

Enjoys hands-on engineering and learning by doing
Understands the basics of cloud infrastructure, containers, and automation
Cares about reliability, security, and maintainability
Communicates clearly and works well with others
Is curious about new tools and practices and thoughtful about adopting them
Wants to grow into greater technical ownership and influence over time

Job Duties

You’ll contribute directly to the day-to-day evolution and reliability of the platform, including:

Building and maintaining infrastructure using Terraform, Ansible, and Python
Supporting and improving CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows
Helping operate and enhance our Kubernetes environments
Working with engineering teams to troubleshoot issues and improve reliability
Contributing to platform standards, documentation, and shared tooling
Automating repetitive tasks and removing manual processes

You won’t be expected to have all the answers, but you will be expected to ask good questions, learn quickly, and take ownership of the solutions you help build.

Knowledge, Skills and Experience

Essential

Background in Platform/OS engineering, both Linux and Windows experience is preferred.
BSc in Computer Science or equivalent, or proven industry experience
Experience using configuration management such as Ansible and Terraform
Experience with containers using both Docker and Kubernetes
Strong AWS Platform Engineering skills in particular; EC2, S3, IAM and VPC/network configuration
Experience with VMWare is a bonus, especially vSphere, NSX, VCF
Comfortable working in a fast paced, lean and deadline driven organisation.
Able to work under pressure and to ask for support when required
Ability to quickly undertake evaluation of competing products to determine which best meets the company’s requirements
Able to automate complex operational and technical processes using industry standard tools
In-depth knowledge of cloud environments and typical technology stacks employed in then

Desirable

iGaming experience: Previous experience within the betting, iGaming, or real-time gaming industry is highly advantageous.
Microservices architecture: Experience building, deploying, and maintaining microservices and event-driven systems.
Data technologies: Familiarity with data platforms and services such as RabbitMQ, Kafka, Redis, or MariaDB/MySQL.
Monitoring tools: Experience with application performance monitoring (APM) and observability tools like Grafana or Datadog.
FinOps: Understanding cost management and FinOps concepts within cloud environments.

What is in it for me?

We offer a variety of competitive benefits, some of which vary depending on the role you’re recruited to. Some of what you can expect in this role includes:

A competitive rate of pay and pension contribution ( £40,000-£65,000)
Generous discretionary bonus schemes, incentives and competitions
An annual leave entitlement that increases with length of service
Access to an online GP 24/7, 365 days a year for you and your immediate family.
Employee wellbeing support through our Employee Assistance Programme
Enhanced Maternity & Paternity Pay
Long Service Recognition
Access to a pay day savings scheme, financial coach and up to 40% of your earned wage ahead of payday, through Wagestream.
